James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. If you want wisdom, asking for it is the beginning. Matthew 7:7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. Part of asking God for anything, is seeking after it. So just like in the scripture, once we ask, than we need to seek. We seek after whatever it is, we are asking God for. Asking and seeking, are all part of the same thing. They are part of petitioning God. So how do we seek for wisdom? Deuteronomy 4:5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the LORD my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it. Deuteronomy 4:6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people. God was telling the children of Israel here that, it was in obeying his word, that wisdom and understanding come. So from this perspective, wisdom, is a verb, it's an action. Wisdom is the product, of obedience too God's word. So therefor, if we ask God for wisdom, we must be ready, for greater obedience to his word.

Treasures, who's worth far exceeds that, of rubies, and gold. All we need to do, to find them, is look for them. They are carefully concealed, inside of God's word.

About the Author
My name is Aaron-Jason Enous. I grew up in a city, in the state of NY, called Schenectady. I gave my life over to Jesus, after he revealed himself to me. I was 17 then. Around that same time I picked up a bible, and tried to read it. It was a King James Version. After only reading about two verses, I stopped. It was too difficult. I couldn't understand the language, or anything else. Nothing in it made sense. So I closed the bible. Then I prayed, and this was my prayer. I told God, that I wanted to get too know him better, and I knew the only way to get too know him, was through his word. I asked him to give me the ability, to read it, so I could be closer to him. Then, by Faith, I opened it again. This time I read the entire book of Acts. God answered my prayer immediately. From that point, it was only a matter of time before I eventually, was able to read the whole bible. It was indeed through that process, that God revealed himself to me. Through his word. The revelations, in this book, are things, that God has shared about himself, too me, through his word. My life situation, wasn't the easiest growing up. I never met my biological father, and because of situations with my Mother ( whom too this day, I love very greatly), I was forced to leave home when I was sixteen. Isaiah 45:5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me. Just like in this scripture, God was with me, even when I didn't know him. He protected me and guided me, all throughout my troubled youth. God never took his hand off me, even when I was running in the completely wrong direction. Before I got saved, I was a wreck, I got in trouble at school, all the time. Eventually my behavior, got so intense, that I was forced from regular high school, into an alternative program (Too this day I am so grateful to God, for putting me their) After I got saved, everything changed. Daniel 10:19 says "And when he had spoken unto me, I was strengthened". By getting into God's word, I found the strength to overcome, any situation. His word healed me, just like it says in psalm 107:20 He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. God’s word provided me with every answer, to every question. There was nothing I ever needed in life, that I couldn't find, in his word. Just like in this scripture from Daniel, God's word imparts strength into us. The more word, we have in us, the stronger we will be, when the enemy comes against us. Isaiah 59:19 When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him. That standard that God, raises up against the enemy, is his word. All the help, and strength we will ever need, for any situation we will find in God's word. Now, I’m 23, and happily married. I have a bachelors degree in History, and am currently working on my Masters. I work full time, in the educational system. Helping disadvantaged youth, just like me. I would like to end this introduction to my book, by thanking two people, who really poured into my life. My Aunt Chris, and a Mentor Kent Hoffmen. Who never gave up on me, even when everyone else did. 2 Samuel 2:9 And I was with thee whithersoever thou wentest, and have cut off all thine enemies out of thy sight, and have made thee a great name, like unto the name of the great men that are in the earth. This scripture is a very special revelation, that God, was sharing with David, through the prophet Nathan ( 2 Samuel 2:7). One thing in this scripture, that makes it of particular importance, is the section, where God, declares to David, that he was with him, where ever he went.
